Never thought I would ever come to this way of thinking, but I agree. We are the classic frogs in a slow boil here. Bringing in the NDP is going to be painful as anyone who has lived through the '70's knows, but the libs are out of touch.

ICBC is typical govt.
They shouldnt have the right to deny full coverage on vechicles over 150k.
Another reason why insurance should be privatized in B.C with competition.
My 08 turbo is insured for only public liability in B.C. Didnt bother to get" coverage" from ICBC because of their lack lusture programs. Basically if it is my fault, i eat it.

You gotta pay to play. Parts for these cars are not cheap and that is why resale sucks on them when the warranty is out.
And no matter what it costs to repair this car, it will still be only worth half of what she paid for it because of the insurance claim history.
Where is the insurance company in all this?
The car drives perfectly fine. To blame the car is petty and a desperate attempt at this point.
An new front subframe cant be cheap... you figure with the race car program they would be more accessable for reasonable money...
Full carbon brakes baby! Not cheap.

Sounds like the entitlement generation .. its everyone else's fault not mine !!

You can't fix stupid. As much as I love super cars, it simply blows my mind how someone would want to spend so much on a car where not only do they not have the skill to drive the car, but also there is no way you can even come remotely close to driving a really fast car such as this one on the public roads the way they can be driven on a race track. Even though I am sad I lost access to a local race track back in 2011 when Race City Speedway here in Cowtown permanently closed (it's okay I took up kart racing in it's place and my DD2 kart is my mini formula car pulling close to 3Gs in the high speed sweepers), I am also very fortunate that I did get to drive my 993 C2 on a race track at my limits which was close to the limits of the car, and what a great car it was to learn on. It was definitely not slow, but it also wasn't so powerful that I got into trouble if I made a mistake on the track. The faster and more powerful the car, the better of a driver you need to be.
This woman had no business driving this car and if she had a shred of common sense she would have known this. Once again, you can't fix stupid.

Welcome to BC - Vancouver and Richmond is teaming with Lambo's, Ferrari's and Astons with young Asians driving them that have ....eh...limited ability.
As my mother says - " More money than sense".
